Kim Taek-Soo (Korean: 김택수; Hanja: 金擇洙, born May 25, 1970) is a former table tennis player from South Korea. He used a one-sided penhold style, compared to the newer style of reverse-backhand looping that has become the Chinese penhold standard.

In 2010, it was announced that Taek-Soo would succeed Yoo Nam-Kyu as head coach of South Korea's national table tennis team, with the date of the change unknown.

He married archer Kim Jo-sun in 2000.
